"taking a picture" is not the same thing as "an x-ray"

I don't see how the fact that it required judicial authorization contradicts what the author said. Many abuses happen with the full backing of courts.

Nobody's looking for a peer reviewed study on today's internet outage.

In that case, wouldn't an alternative like OnionShare always be safer? The code is open source, it's a desktop app, and the source code is obviously immutable on your computer.

The biggest problems I have had with my Mac came from a kernel extension that I didn't know got installed, and didn't get uninstalled when I uninstalled the accompanying program.

When I go to Facebook.com, my login credentials are instantly filled in by Safari. What prompt are you talking about?

Maybe for most countries, but not America. The MPAA movie rating system here is a nightmare. The rating standards are private, and if they rate you NC17 or X or what have you, they'll refuse to give any reasons as to why, because that

Weird how whenever I try to buy something with bitcoin on Overstock it still makes me pay sales tax. Bitcoin must be a big government conspiracy.

If it makes your coins extremely difficult to steal in the event that either coinbase or your account is breached, isn't that by definition making your coins more secure?

Twitter has some problems too. People do change their username, and every time they do, all previous tweets mentioning them by @username lead to dead ends.

How is that different from Touch ID?

> Amazon would have to pay Apple a share of the proceeds which might be a problem since the margins are already pretty low. Not true. Amazon can still have an app on Apple TV, and Apple won't get a cut, if Amazon sells subscriptions

iTunes backup doesn't really fit with the scenario that is being discussed, which is making sure agents don't get access to your information during customs. If you back up to your computer, then they can demand your computer passw

I think the allegation is that she died because the sub drowned. He isn't alleged to have killed her any other way yet, and speculation of another way is just speculation.

I think it's even more useful with 20 stackoverflow tabs. I'd prefer knowing that a particular range of tabs is all stackoverflow, or all some other site. And I don't know why, but I never got into the habit of the pinch to v

Without something like self-driving, what differentiates Uber from Lyft and other future competitors? A 1.5 star App Store rating? Greyball?

Their non-profit model probably helped.

That's not Apple doing this, that's the developers. Almost no company thinks it makes financial sense to support old OSes when 97% of users are using iOS 9 and above.

Are you sure? IIRC when I played with my old iPhone 3Gs (older than iPad) earlier this year, I could still install the old versions of apps, even if the new ones required higher iOS versions. I kinda have to question the value of giving som

The difference then is probably widespread access to cars. With suburbs being so spread out, most people would rather drive rather than bike more than 5 miles per trip, despite the big environmental and personal health consequences.

Doubt it. Lobbying influence varies from industry to industry. Both countries try to take extreme steps from time to time on copyright (see SOPA and PIPA attempts in the US), so I'm not sure if copyright lobbying in Japan is worse. I a

What makes you think our options will increase as time passes? The history of modern operating systems is a decrease in viable operating systems over time. Along with iOS and Android, webOS, BlackBerry OS, and Windows Mobile all used to be
